meme text looks bad in ubuntu #6

It just does!

adriancooney commented 11 years ago

Oh no!

I'm not really sure there's much I can do, all the text rendering is done with fillText and strokeText on the canvas.

Fresheyeball commented 11 years ago

I believe its the "Impact" font not being available on all platforms: https://github.com/dunxrion/console.image/blob/master/console.image.js#L69

Give me a bit and I will research an answer.

Ok, so it is a font issue, but there is an easy work around for us ubuntu users. There is a package ttf-mscorefonts-installer in the ubuntu software center that give linux the impact font. Would you mind just adding that to your documentation?

Thanks for the detective work! Will do.

I am shamelessly re-using this thread to inform you that I have OSed my personal logging class which makes use of your library. https://github.com/Fresheyeball/Clog Just to show some ways its being used.
